Easy Fruit Salad with Orange Poppy Seed Dressing

I found a recipe for an easy fruit salad with orange poppy seed dressing on Damn Delicious recently and decided to give it a try. My family hasn’t been eating as much fruit as we should lately so I was hoping this fruit salad would help and be a nice side dish for a recent dinner. The local berries were sweet & tasty on their own but then combined with tart kiwi slices, fresh mint and a sweet orange poppy seed dressing made this fruit salad extra special and it disappeared quickly.

How to Make an Easy Fruit Salad with Orange Poppy Seed Dressing

Whisk together the orange juice, orange zest, honey, and poppy seeds together; set aside to allow flavors to mingle.

In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, and kiwi. Gently stir in the orange juice mixture and toss until evenly coated.

Let the fruit salad sit at least 15 minutes before serving, garnished with mint, if desired. Enjoy.
